Abstrakt: A study of transport in a quantum hot electron transistor made of an InAs/AlSb heterostructure is reported. It exhibited that the quantum hot electron transistors with a thick emitter efficiently prevented the parasitic base currents compared with transistors with a thin emitter. The static characteristics of the fabricated devices demonstrated an enhancement of the current gain of 9 and a collector breakdown voltage of 1.5 V with thick-emitter designed transistors. In optimized devices, the current is dominated by fast resonant tunneling that is promising for their future development of as high frequency transistors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
